After trailing the New Britain boys for*eight innings, the E-1 teamn made their hits in the last of the ninth and alded by a bit of wqp- bly playing put across their three runs. The Corbin clan scored in the sec- ond on Wojak's hit and some clever work on the pathe and Preisser's smashing hit to left. The second run came in the eighth on Snyder's hit and steal and Huber's fielder’s choice and a bad throw by Montana. In the fatal ninth, Hunt beat out a hit to Barnett and went to second and third on Lincoln’s sipgle. He scored on Snyder's error of Plerson's lift. Lincoln was caught at third on Rig- glo’s flelder’'s choice after Fields had flied to Huber. Johnson's single over Barnett aided and Riggio scored the winning run when Corbin threw wild to third to catch him. The score: Sox. £ 0 Corbin Red a.b.

Mary's nine in the City league Baturdey afternoon at Walnut Hill park, The score at the end of the game which was called in the sevénth jnning, was 10 to 4 in faver of Charley Miller's charges. Beagle's perfect batting streak was broken in the fourth inning when Jagolowski struek him out. Up to this time, he had slammed out one hit and had spc- rificed a run in. The fourth time at bat, he hit again, and had he not struck out, he would have had another perfect day. Meehan, catcher for the Pirates, was injured in the first in. ning when Grace, coming in from third, collided with him. He was torced to retire from the game in the second frame in favor of “Butsy” Hall, Jagolowski turned in some goed pitching, but seven errors behind him helped him to lose, Fafnirs 12, Independents 8 The Fifnir nine, after staging a rally in the eighth inning which re- sulted in eight runs, trimmed the In- dependents in a well-played and inter~ esting game by the score of 12 to 8. Restelli, up to this time, had pitched a good game, but the Fafnir clouters sent him out into the, left garden in favor of “Bosh” Schmidt, who was able to stem the tide only after a few more runs had been scored. Up to this point, the Independents wers leading 7 to 4. Both teams played good ball, but a few costly errors were made on both sides. Charland, veteran of the old Ward league, was in the box for Fafnirs, and he puzzled the Independents with his slow curves, A bunch of well lald bunts, however, had him rattled for a time. He was reliéved in the sixth by Tommy Blan- chard who held the Independents to only one run. “Bosh” Schmidt pulled two of the prettiest squeeze plays of the season, both times scoring Cher- pack from third and reaching first himself. Both teams ‘“razzed” Um- pire Young throughout the game for deubtful decisions. Rangers 15, Cardinals 1 The Rangers vs. Cardinals proved an uninteresting game, the two teams showing up about as opposite as the two poles. Veley and Chant both pitched well, but the former got poor support. Old Pete Fusari, who was going good when the rest of the Rangers were in their cradles, was the candy kid with the willow, getting three hits in five tries. Hayes hit for a double. Had the Cardinals flelded better the score might have been smaller. FIGHT WITH RUM RUNNER.
